When Ye Huan and his three brothers returned home, Nan Qiaomu had prepared a sumptuous meal waiting for them.
Seeing Ye Huan's weak appearance after being helped back, Nan Qiaomu was shocked. After questioning him, he couldn't help but feel angry and funny. He opened his mouth and wanted to say a few harsh words to stab him, but when he saw Ye Huan's look, he was more breathless than a dead person.
The look made my heart soften again.
What an uneasy little ancestor...
When Monkey and Zhang San saw the table full of dishes, they were so greedy that they almost salivated. They threw Ye Huan on the chair, and they took the dishes into their mouths with their hands.
While Nan Qiaomu entered the kitchen to serve the soup, Houhou smiled and said: "Brother Huan, a woman like Qiaomu not only has high education and high income, but can also cook good food. She has a good appearance and figure. She is very good."
Are you never tempted by the kitchen or the living room?"
Ye Huan half-slumped on the chair and said feebly: "I'm too familiar with it, I'm embarrassed to do it..."
Zhang San snorted and said disdainfully: "You have a thief's heart but not the courage, right?"
Ye Huan sighed and said: "It's a lie not to be tempted, but to be tempted is to be tempted. But if you were me, would you chase Qiao Mu?"
Monkey and Zhang San said in unison: "Of course!"
Ye Huan said slowly: "Then you are wrong. Think about it, a beautiful woman with two master's degrees, good looks and figure, I heard that there is a long queue of men pursuing her at Ninghai University. Those men have a bright future.
Her PhD is a rich young man, so why should I chase her? What capital do I have to chase her?"
Zhang San hummed: "So many people are chasing her, but she is willing to live with you in a shabby house in the slums, taking two or three buses to work every day, for several years, and no one even complains. Are you blind?"
What can you tell me about the arbor diagram?"
Ye Huan sighed: "It's because she doesn't want anything from me that I don't dare to chase her. People like us are extremely poor and live around all day long. We don't have any money left. To put it bluntly, let her watch the show."
The movies are bad enough. She has a high degree of education, a high income, and looks like a fairy girl. If she followed a gangster like me, it would be even more outrageous than the combination of beauty and beast..."
"Qiao Mu deserves a better man, instead of living a life of poverty like a gangster like me. If I chase her, I will harm her. I don't mind harming women all over the world, but I can't harm her, because she is with us.
When she grows up, I can't hurt her heart..." Ye Huan's tone was deep, revealing a bit of helplessness towards reality.
Yes, status, education, income...these gaps are so nakedly in front of you that it's impossible to escape. Why should you love her? In this cruel age, even love is so extravagant. If you can't afford it, just fall in love with her.
He can only choose to retreat and give her a better future.
Monkey and Zhang San looked at each other, and Monkey said: "Qiao Mu treated you like that. We always thought you were blind and didn't understand what she meant to you. So it turns out that you didn't know but deliberately evaded?"
Ye Huan smiled bleakly: "I have picked up so many girls in the past few years, I am considered a veteran in love. Am I an idiot who can't see what Qiao Mu means to me? If you can't love her, don't hurt her. People don't
She thinks I'm poor because of her affection, and I avoid her affection for me because of her affection..."
Before he finished speaking, a crisp sound of "clang" suddenly came from the kitchen.
The three of them ran over in a hurry, only to see the soup bowl falling to the ground, and red and white chicken soup scattered all over the floor.
Nan Qiaomu hurriedly cleaned up and kept saying: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I... my hand slipped."
Avoiding the gazes of the three people, the moment Nan Qiaomu turned around, the three of them could clearly see her slightly trembling body and the few crystal tears in her eyes. The tears fell to the ground, broke and bloomed, like a sad flower.
Wintersweet.
After finishing cleaning up, Nan Qiaomu hurried back to the room and closed the door tightly.
In the living room, Monkey and Zhang San looked at Ye Huan with reproachful eyes.
"I said I wouldn't hurt her, but now I'm hurt."
Ye Huan gritted his teeth and said firmly: "It's better to hurt her for a while than to hurt her forever. She deserves a better future, instead of following a gangster like me and worrying about daily necessities. This is even more unfair to her."
The monkey thought more deeply. He looked at Zhang San helplessly and said: "I don't understand about a bright future. I only know that Brother Huan has offended Qiao Mu deeply this time. I'm afraid we won't be able to eat her cooking in the future."
Nan Qiaomu was sitting alone in the room. At this moment, she was trembling all over. Crystal tears flowed down her face. She covered her mouth and cried silently.
There was no light in the room, and it was dark and cold, just like her heart.
In the darkness, the photo of Ye Huan and her reflected the slightest light. In the photo, Ye Huan was holding a cigarette sideways with a nonchalant expression, while she was leaning against him tightly, with a faint smile on her lips.
A touch of happiness.
Staring at the familiar face inside that made people love and hate her, Nan Qiaomu shed more and more tears.
Nan Qiaomu has never been a woman who is good at expressing herself, whether she is happy or sad. She always hides in a corner where there is no one and cries or laughs by herself. The genius girl actually has a natural fear of the world. Only by hiding under Ye Huan's wings can she
Only then did she feel safe. From childhood to adulthood, Ye Huan had always protected her silently and never let her down.
Why let her down this time?
Ye Huan, why have you become so vulgar? What is a better future? Money? Status? Or are you using rejection to cover up the inferiority complex of the poor in your heart?
Without you in my life, where would my future be?
Nan Qiaomu cried until her heart broke. She was deeply hurt.
In the haze, she seemed to hear the voice of a child.
"Brother Huan, I don't want to be the monkey's bride in the house, I want to be your bride!" Five-year-old Nan Qiaomu pouted, his face full of grievances.
"I've already married you once just now. It's my turn to marry you this time. Be good and be obedient!" Ye Huan's order was unquestionable.
"No! I won't! I'm just your bride!" Nan Qiaomu burst into tears.
Ye Huan was helpless: "Okay, okay, then I will marry you again, monkey, go away, you have nothing to do."
Nan Qiao's tears turned into laughter.
…………

"Brother Huan...will you really marry me when you grow up?" Nine-year-old Nan Qiaomu's clear eyes were full of expectation.
"Do you know that Wang Yan in our class who gets over 90 points in every exam? That girl looks at our brothers with her nostrils every time. It's so annoying. As long as Qiao Mu gets 100 points every time and surpasses that girl, she'll be long.
I will marry you when I grow up."
Nan Qiaomu nodded excitedly: "Okay, I will definitely get 100 points every time!"
…………

Nan Qiaomu hid her face in the quilt, and it was as if an invisible hand had torn open a bloody wound in her heart, which was so painful that she couldn't breathe.
Ye Huan, do you still remember your promise back then? I did it, what about you? I’m afraid you have forgotten it, right?
Bastard! Bastard!!
Dong dong dong...
A gentle knock on the door.
Ye Huan turned on the light in the room, and that annoying face came into Nan Qiaomu's eyes.
Facing Nan Qiaomu's angry gaze, Ye Huan's scalp went numb and he laughed dryly: "I just broke a soup bowl. Why are you crying like this? I don't blame you..."
Nanqiaomu: “…………”
Ye Huan became more and more embarrassed: "What...the food is on the table, everyone is waiting for you to eat together."
Nan Qiaomu stared at him angrily: "..."
"People are like iron, and food is like steel. If you cry without eating, you will feel hungry. It will feel better if you cry again after eating..."
In silence, Nanqiao broke out.
With a whoosh, a pink pillow flew out, knocking Ye Huan staggering.
The gentle and gentle Nan Qiaomu went crazy and shouted with tears streaming down his face: "Get out! You bastard who doesn't keep his words!"
Bang!
The door was slammed shut again.
Ye Huansheng stood outside the door with a puzzled look on his face.
The monkey came up with an evil smile on his face: "Brother Huan, what did you do to someone else's tree again? Why don't you keep your word?"
Ye Huan scratched his head hard, causing dandruff to fly in the sky. He thought for a long time, slapped his thigh hard, and said with an annoyed look: "I know! When we came back today, Qiao Mu called me and asked me to bring a bottle of vinegar back. I agreed at the time
